Content Alignment/Utility

6. To Be Used as A Pre-Post Assessment to Measure Growth and Inform Instruction Identifying potential floor and ceiling effects. How effectively does the assessment measure growth? Is the measurement instructionally informative? How will this differ in results reporting from previous benchmark proficiency level report outs? From these results, how will we define potential low, moderate, and high growth cut scores? To Be Used in Instructional Data Meetings for Planning, Pacing Purposes Is the measurement aligned to content? Adapted Protocol To Be a Universal Screening Measure for Piloted Math Tier 2 Intervention To Begin to Expose Upper Elementary Students to Electronic Assessments and Question Formats of PARCC To measure the effectiveness of our new curriculum Purpose
